«O Livro Selvagem» is the young adult novel by Juan Villoro, published by Seguinte in paperback (192 pages, in Brazilian Portuguese).
Juan, a thirteen-year-old boy, spends his holidays with his eccentric uncle Tito, a bibliophile surrounded by books. His uncle asks him for help finding 'O Livro Selvagem', a copy that resists reading and hides a secret for whoever finds it. Between readings and Catalina, Juan discovers the relationship between literature and life.
Translation by Antônio Xerxenesky; the original work, 'El libro salvaje', was published in 2008.
Suitable for young readers and for those who enjoy stories about books and literature.
